Was Aeneas a Classical Myth or Bronze Age Hero?
About this episode
The saying “History is myth and myth is history” is something we have been discussing a lot of late at Classical Wisdom. Where does the story of Aeneas lie?
Today’s Classical Wisdom Speaks podcast is with Anthony Adolph, a professional genealogist, broadcaster and writer of numerous books on ancestry and general history, including his most recent, In Search of Aeneas: Classical Myth or Bronze Age Hero?, of which we’ll discuss today.
You can find Anthony's book here.
